Track 1: Application of Surgery

The important role of the surgical procedures is to use the operative manual or instrumental techniques over the victims to treat the conditions such as injury or diseases and in rare cases to improve the bodily conditions of the patients. The entire surgical procedures can be explained in three words they include preoperative care, surgical procedure, and the postoperative care. The team of surgery includes the eminent surgeon, surgical assistant, anesthesiologist, circulating nurse, and the scrub nurse.

• Antiseptics
• Anesthesia
• Staging for surgery
• Post anesthesia care unit

Track 2: Cardiac Surgery

Due to the changing, the lifestyle people are more prone to cardiac disorders and the field of cardiac surgery is also grown to a greater extent through the minimally invasive procedures. Generally, the cardiac surgeons perform the minimally invasive surgical procedures through the small incisions on the right side of the chest this acts as the alternative to the traditional open-heart surgery. In minimally invasive surgery the cardiac surgeons are found to have a better view and the diagnosis than the conventional methods.

• Hernia and repair

Track 6: General Surgery

Generally, the general surgeons are not supposed to focus only on the surgery they are also responsible for the pre and post-operative care after the surgery. Usually, the general surgeons are found to perform many types of surgery due to their broad range in the mode of education. They are mostly found to deal with skin, breast, soft tissue and perform endoscopic procedures such as gastroscopy and colonoscopy. Certain general surgeons move for further specialized studies while some rely on this broad field itself due to their interest.

• Alimentary Tract (esophagus and related organs)
• Abdomen and its Contents
• Breast, Skin and Soft Tissue
• Endocrine System
• Colorectal surgery

Track 7: Growth in Surgery and Anesthesiology

Due to the rapid growth in the field of surgery and anesthesiology the surgical procedures have now a days became less painful for the patients and allows them to get back to their normal life faster than the traditional surgery. Anesthesiology can be defined as the procedure to bring up the loss of sensation in patients either by means of inhalation or by the mode of injection. Continues reinventions and developments may be the reason for the growth of surgery and anesthesiology. The recent development in the field of minimally invasive surgeries are also the reason behind them.

• Robotic, laser and microsurgery
• Laparoscopic surgery or minimally invasive surgery
• Endoscopy

• Laser surgery
• Cataract surgery
• Glaucoma surgery
• Refractive surgery
• Corneal surgery
• Eyelid and orbital surgery

Track 11: Orthopaedic Surgery

Orthopedic surgeons are mainly focused on the disorders or the unexpected trauma occurring in the musculoskeletal system. The term T&O Surgery is the combination of trauma and the orthopedic surgeons. Surgery of the hand and wrist, spinal surgery, Joint replacement and the reconstruction are the key areas of the orthopaedic surgery.

• Knee arthroscopy
• Carpel tunnel syndrome
• Knee replacement
• Ankle fracture
• Shoulder arthroscopy

Track 12: Otolaryngology

Otolaryngology generally deals with the treatment of ear, nose and the throat and the associated areas of the head and neck. The doctors who specializes in this fields are called as the otolaryngologists are the ENT doctors and most commonly as head and neck surgeons. Cancer and benign tumors of the head and neck are also treated by them.

• Laryngology
• Otology/Neurotology
• Pediatric Otolaryngology
• Rhinology

Track 13: Pediatric Surgery

Pediatric surgery generally focuses on the surgery involving the fetuses, infants, children, adolescents and young adults.

Track 14: Principles of Surgery

The most common factor in which the surgery depends on is the principle of optimal healing. To explain in detail the innate properties of the body tissue to heal itself is called as the optimal healing. Exploring the medical history, physical examination and radiographic findings should be analyzed before the surgery has been fixed. Maintaining the aseptic techniques both the medical asepsis and surgical asepsis are also the basic principles of surgery. The principles and the steps of surgery include patient assessment, screening for the diseases, surgical planning, maintaining homeostasis and wound healing.

• Developing a surgical diagnosis
• Aseptic techniques
• Incision
• Hemostasis
• Decontamination and debridement

Track 15: Surgeons and Physicians

As most of us know there is a common quote stating that all the surgeons are physicians but not all physicians are surgeons. Most probably surgeons perform same as that of the physicians like detecting the illness, predicting the medical reports but while physicians focus on the theme that encourages the body to heal itself surgeons performs some actions to rectify the illness, injuries and any malfunctions. Surgeons may also refer as the kings and queens of the operating rooms.

• Primary care-internal medicine guider
• General Surgeons

• Pre and post-operative care

Track 16: Surgical Instruments

Surgical instrumentation is also one of the important tools in the field of surgery. Cutting instruments, grasping and holding instruments, hemostatic instruments, retractors and tissue unifying instruments which are commonly used in the fields of surgery. Surgical instrumentation has become one of the important fields in the biomedical sciences and are found to be rapidly growing. The rapidly growing minimally invasive surgeries and the other laparoscopic techniques may be the reason for the growth of surgical instrumentation. And most probably surgeons are also started relying on minimally invasive surgeries which may be the reason for the rapid growth of surgical instrumentation.

• Proper sterilization
• Biomedical instrumentation
• Fibre optic endoscopes
• optical, electronic and mechanical devices

Track 17: Surgical Nursing

The fact called surgical nursing plays the important role in the success of the surgery. A surgical nurse commonly referred to as scrub nurse or theatre nurse is responsible for the pre and post-operative care after the surgery. There are various stages in the surgery in which the surgical nurse will be assisting the patients, surgeons, surgical technicians, nurse anesthetists, and other medical practitioners. Surgical nurses may practice in different types of surgery like general surgery, vascular surgery, Colo-rectal surgery, and orthopedic surgery.

They even take care of traffic jams in the circulatory system caused by the hardening of the arteries.

• Amputation Carotid
• Endarterectomy
• Aortic dissection
• Thrombolytic therapy

In recent years the surgical procedures have been increasing abruptly and the field of surgical instrumentation is also found to grow at the maximum rate. According to the recent survey performed by the National Centre for Health Statistics cardiac surgeries stands at the top and the ear surgeries stand the least. The below graph shows the statistical analysis of different types of procedures performed.

The growth of surgical instrumentation has also become irreplaceable in the last few years, according to the recent survey it is found that electrosurgical device market was valued for 740 million U.S Dollars in 2015 and it is estimated to reach the height of 1.3 billion U.S Dollars in 2024.
